There is a poorly thought out argument in a AP article that taxing tobacco is a tax on the poor. A Google search for the author, Calvin Woodward, suggests he would never write a positive article about President Obama.

One of President Barack Obama’s campaign pledges on taxes went up in puffs of smoke Wednesday.
The largest increase in tobacco taxes took effect despite Obama’s promise not to raise taxes of any kind on families earning under $250,000 or individuals under $200,000.
This is one tax that disproportionately affects the poor, who are more likely to smoke than the rich.
